Hi! I am very familiar with the Brook Baker case because I live about 30 miles from Vincennes, IN where it happened. I'm not sure the reason the cousin wouldn't cooperate but I do know that Brian E. Jones was found guilty of the rape and murder of Brook Baker a few years ago and received life in prison without parole. He also confessed to the murder of the another 21 year old girl in Vincennes. Hope this helps!

What ever happened to the Little Miss Panasofkee (spelled right?) case? Or the one with the couple who killed their newborn baby? That one really bothered me. The UM 'official' site should give more updates, especially with the ongoing Kristen Smart investigation. Why didn't UM REALLY explain the boys on the tracks?

Here's what I know:
1) About Sarah Beard (sp?): As far as I know they have never caught the Wadada guy, as UM has never had an update about it (which shouldn't be entirely relied upon). I did a search for the case online and found nothing.
2) About Little Miss Panasofkee (spelled right), I wasn't able to find anything about her either. I did extensive searching but I couldn't even find a link about her to the Panasofkee police department. It's sad, but I guess it's safe to assume that her identity will never be determined.

Thanks for that bit of info... That (Panasofkee) case was one of those that really upset me. Everytime I see it it makes me cry. The other one that I was talking about, I really should clarify! It was the story about a man that was on his boat out on some lake. He heard a woman giving birth, and right after she had the baby the couple beat the baby to death. The man on the lake couldn't do anything, but he telephoned the police, and they had the funeral for the little baby. Has that case ever been solved????

Oh! I forgot! Waddada I think was spelled with a 'J'. I don't remember for sure though! Disregard this if I sound like an idiot, or if I'm wrong!;) :D

A few weeks ago I saw the Sarah Beard case for the first time.
What stunned me is that Wadada made his living leeching off of others. So how could fifteen years pass without anyone seeing him? Unless he changed his appearance such as cutting off the dreds, or leaving the area or the country altogether....

Wow what luck. I was just about to post a new thread, but i was reading through old ones and i came across this one, and that name just struck my memory. This was it! I was going to ask about this one case i've seen many times when i was younger but havent seen it for many years. I forgot a lot of it but i knew this one part where there was this young woman who was friends with this guy, he was of Jamaican or Trinidad and Tobago (or something, i really forgot) decent. But he betrayed their trust and he raped and beat her in her apartment. She was seriously injured and was in the hospital for a long time, but when her family members were saying names as to who her attacker was, the woman squeezed her father's (or mother's) hand when they said Wadadda (sp?). And all i remember from his composite were the dreadlocks and that claw-like hand of his. And Stack said to look out for it because it was very distinct.
But this thread was posted last year, so maybe some update came up this year? I always wanted that one to be solved, probably because its one of the earlier ones ive seen over and over again. So is there anything??

Hope this helps!I remember that real well too. I had just moved to Vincennes about a month prior to my seeing the story. I never knew if they found the killer or not, but had always hoped I was not renting from the suspicious land lord. I had always wondered too why the cousin did not speak about it.
